Lets's calculate LCM of 290,9279
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2690910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2690910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5736/290,3004/9279 is 4/2690910
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 290,9279 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,9279) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,9279) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(290,9279) = ( 290 × 9279 ) / 1
LCM(290,9279) = 2690910 / 1
LCM(290,9279) = 2690910
